As you enter the world of behavior analysis, you’ll see that not all examples of our interactions with the world and people are quite as simple as they may look.
To help you along the way, we’ve designed a job aid (The Contingency-Diagramming Checklist) of all the concepts and general rules you need to keep in mind while analyzing and creating behavioral contingencies.
You could impress your teacher and hopefully even make your buddies in class laugh. Or they’ll think hard about your example’s heavy-duty intellectuality. But before you’re done with each example, you’ll make sure that it passes all 10 tests. We call the job aid with the 10 tests the Pink Sheet. And it saves many lost contingencies that need saving. Sometimes you’ll be able to view the pink sheet by clicking a button like this, but it’s better to have the paper version out too. LET’S BEGIN!
